_hc | in other news, | 11:47:30 |
_hc | I'd like to remove myself from admin access on things that are already well covered by others. | 11:47:30 |
_hc | I'm in too many things for a good bus factor | 11:47:44 |
_hc | For example, I suck at IRC chanops and matrix ops, so I'd like to be a regular user there. | 11:47:45 |
_hc | and the last item: | 11:48:22 |
_hc | Guardian Project got a grant to work on integrating "Pluggable Transports" into three apps. | 11:48:24 |
_hc | The idea is to provide censorship circumvention by disguising traffic as something popular and innocuous | 11:48:31 |
_hc | for example WebRTC traffic | 11:48:36 |
_hc | most likely, this will include Wikimedia and F-Droid for prototypes | 11:48:59 |
_hc | with uniq doing most of the work | 11:49:05 |
_hc | it'll probably be hard to integrate into the official F-Droid releases, so this grant will most likely end up with working prototypes that people can use if they want | 11:49:44 |
_hc | that's it from me | 11:49:57 |
_hc | EOF | 11:49:57 |
Coffee (F-Droid) | _hc: What are the details of these two new buildservers? | 11:51:59 |
_hc | none yet, just an offer from gcc cfarm | 11:52:23 |
Coffee (F-Droid) | OK, just curious since you mentioned less secure hosting, whereas you were pretty positive about the first two cfarm servers. | 11:53:00 |
_hc | oh, one thing I forgot: it is heopfully possible to use the new "Terminal" feature of gitlab-ci to get a shell into a gitlab ci job if it fails. I'm configuring it, heopfully it works :) | 11:53:48 |
Coffee (F-Droid) | Nice! | 11:54:04 |
_hc | less secure means mulitiple non-fdroid people have root on the boxes (the cfarm admins) | 11:54:15 |
_hc | and it means that the hardware is from Facebook and used as is | 11:54:27 |
Coffee (F-Droid) | OK, but that's the same between the first two and these two new ones, so can I assume you changed your mind about doing production builds on cfarm servers? | 11:55:17 |
_hc | I'm guessing the two new ones would be the same setup as the two we just got | 11:55:48 |
Coffee (F-Droid) | Right. I guess that answers my question. :) Anyone else? | 11:56:15 |
_hc | since repro builds are coming, and Debian hosts official builders there, I'm OK with hosting some official builds there | 11:56:12 |
_hc | but the forum topic is where the full discussion is. Not everyone is OK with it | 11:56:26 |
_hc | and I'm not 100% certain either | 11:56:46 |
Coffee (F-Droid) | Next? | 11:58:12 |
Coffee (F-Droid) | Mathijs, Nico Alt: You want to talk about the Matrix server you set up this week? | 12:01:01 |
_hc | yes please :) | 12:17:51 |
Mathijs | Sorry, I was in a work meeting | 12:21:44 |
